ARECIBO MOON RADIO TELESCOPE DERIVED 12.6 CM RADAR V1.0

Radar scaled backscatter cross section images of the Moon made with the 12.6 cm wavelength radar at Arecibo Observatory. The data are corrected for antenna beam shape, but not for radar scattering variations with incidence angle. Data are scaled to fit within dynamic range of output values. The images are projected onto a Mercator grid with a longitude spacing of 0.01 degrees per pixel.
